David,

A judo student of mine tells me from his Judo instructor that you won't see any coverage of judo or the tae kwon do competition.

That really suxs!!

I was lucky enough to see some judo (not live) but I'll take what I can get. David, the Canadians have a grand total of 4 medals last time I checked. There was a report in the local paper the other day about the registered judoka in Canada. We have approximately 30,000. Not many when you consider the size of our country, our population and how popular martial arts is around the world. I'll see if I can find the article and post the numbers in comparison to the rest of the world. :-)
